Victoria Gold   A deep yellow floribunda with a slight to moderate perfume was bred by Eric Welsh in 1999. It commemorates the centenary of the Victoria Rose Society. This rose has a very distinctive red edge in the autumn. The bloom holds its shape very well.

Victoria Gold. Floribunda bred by Eric Welsh in 1998. This tall growing floribunda is one of the first roses to flower in spring. It has small clusters of deep yellow roses, very little colour variation is noticeable until petal drop, a bit unusual in this colour range. The stems are good for cutting with green glossy foliage, and a slight fragrance.
